Happy Pi Day!

We have been preparing to celebrate Pi Day coming up tomorrow. We kept things simple here in first grade. We focused on how we use symbols in math to tell us to do different things. We talked about the symbol for pi and how it relates to circles. We read a story called The Dot about a little girl who is inspired to make beautiful circles and dots. We made lots of circles to make one big circle. The kids had a great time making the dots and then putting them together to make a huge circle. We are ready for Pi Day tomorrow.
